Mohamed Salah's name and perceived demise has made countless column inches this season.
But – to those who say the Egyptian is no longer at the required standard – is he starting to show there's plenty more in the tank?
Salah has scored in each of his last three Premier League starts, a return to form having only scored two goals in his previous 14 starts.
The third-highest scorer in Liverpool's history, has last season's talisman been written off too quickly?
The old saying – 'form is temporary, class is permanent' – also springs to mind.
Salah will be 33 years and 314 days old for Liverpool's next game against Crystal Palace and if he finds his way into Arne Slot's starting line-up and scores, he'll be joining the history-books.
Cristiano Ronaldo was the last player that old to score in four starts in a row in the Premier League back in May 2022, aged 37 years, 86 days.
Salah's Anfield end is upon us. It seems he still has unfinished business.
